The objective of this course is to equip students with knowledge and skills needed to start investing in the financial markets. This course is not a replacement for core foundational courses in finance and investments. Rather this course is focused on the narrow, practical objective of building fundamental financial and investment literacy, so as to begin the life-long practice of learning and investing as a college student.

This course will rely on freely available learning materials and references on the internet.

Optional:
